Rudlosky & GLM on the Weather Channel

On Monday March 6, NOAA released the first public imagery from the GOES-16 Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM). This initial animation displayed 30 seconds of lightning data from tornadic storms that occurred on February 14, 2017 near Houston, TX. The release of this imagery has garnered interest from many news sources and the general public.

On Tuesday March 7, Scott Rudlosky was interviewed live on The Weather Channel to discuss this new technology. This interview provided a tremendous opportunity to share our excitement about the new instrument with a broad audience. Scott has been interviewed by several other news outlets including live radio interviews, telephone interviews for print media, and Skype interviews with various local news channels (see list below).
